Hyper-converged storage is turning out to be the buzz phrase of the storage industry in 2015, one with as many confusing and contradictory definitions as there are vendors. In theory, the combining of server and storage tiers into a single entity should deliver better application performance and lower infrastructure costs. In practice, your mileage will vary.

Join us for this webinar where industry expert Jon Toigo – chairman and co-founder of the Data Management Institute – will help to identify key criteria for making the right infrastructure decision for your business. Mr. Toigo will offer his key criteria in selecting a hyper-converged infrastructure model and he will survey the offerings of leading vendors to identify the “gotchas,” trade-offs and lock-ins of each option so you find the best fit for your company.

Network Managers have a tall order in IT organizations today. Typically, they are tasked with two conflicting business directives:

1. Deliver optimal end-user experience for networked applications

2. Reduce the operational cost of the network, or reduce the IT budget

But the knee jerk approach of “throwing bandwidth at the problem” while potentially improving end user experience, is hardly the answer to cost management and network optimization.

In this webinar, Chris Greer will discuss the challenges that result from the common approaches utilized today in capacity planning and, outline a new way, comprised of 4 actionable steps to optimizing the bandwidth you may already have.

Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) provides a new ecosystem and value chain in mobile networks. The Open-RAN ecosystem enables Mobile Operators to open their Radio Access Network (RAN) edge to authorized third-party applications and services. By transforming proximity, context, agility, rapid response time and speed into value for mobile users, mobile operators, network equipment vendors, and third-party providers can improve the customer experience and monetize mobile broadband. The MEC trend is gaining momentum with the establishment of an ETSI MEC Standardization group led by Intel, Nokia, Huawei and other major players.

In the Webinar, we will present the MEC architecture within the mobile network and demonstrate a number of use cases
-Leveraging the Open-RAN ecosystem to bring 3rd party applications like Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) to the Radio Edge;
-Demonstrating the value of real-time network awareness for optimized content delivery;
-And presenting advanced RAN-based technologies that further accelerate content delivery

As companies explore how they can leverage OpenStack to advance their business, they often ask if OpenStack is really “production-ready.” Through co-founding OpenStack, running one of the world’s largest OpenStack clouds, and managing OpenStack private clouds for enterprises, we know what is takes to make OpenStack production-ready. In this session, Justin Shepard, a Rackspace distinguished architect, will discuss what it means to be "production-ready" and how we designed Rackspace Private Cloud Powered By OpenStack to run production workloads. Register today to join this insightful and informative discussion.

Research shows that more data resides at the edge than in the data center.
Join us to learn:
-Trends in mobility and mobile worker demands
-Pros and cons of various approaches
-How to meet the needs of today's mobile enterprise

Do Small to Medium Sized Businesses even need archiving, or is it something only for large enterprises? W. Curtis Preston seems to believe pretty strongly that almost any company needs archiving, and he'll explain why in this webinar.

The more business you do, the more data spreads throughout your branch and remote offices, increasing the risk of data loss. IT teams need to be prepared with a proactive disaster recovery (DR) strategy. Today, that means incorporating data deduplication for capacity optimization and faster recovery.
Join us to learn how global deduplication and high availability (HA) streamline and enhance recovery in multiple location infrastructures. This webinar will feature renowned storage expert/blogger W. Curtis Preston and FalconStor's Director of Product Marketing, Mike DiMeglio.

Topics of discussion will include:
-The connection between data deduplication and business continuity
-Choosing the right deduplication solution
-Capacity optimization as the foundation of multi-tier recovery
-How to centrally manage DR and deduplication across your IT infrastructure
-Benefits of global deduplication, including extended data retention, faster local restore, easier archiving, and a smoother transition to cloud-based storage and DR
